WEB ADI INTEGRATOR FOR Bill of Material

I am developing a WEB ADI integrator for Bill of material upload. The integrator will populate the data in a temporary table, validate it & write the error messages back to the table . On succesful validation the data will be sent to interface tables & then to base table.
The integrator uses a procedure & sends data to the procedure. Procedure then loads data in temporary table & does the rest of work.
To do this i need to know the following thinngs:
1. How i can track the line no of Excel?
2. How do I know that all data are loaded in temporaray table because the validation & rest of work will be done once all the rows of excel are transfered to temporaray table. i.e. How do i determine the End of File in Excel?
3. How do i write error messages from the table to the excel in web adi?
Any help will be appreciated. Please send me the sample scripts & web adi developer guide at [email protected],[email protected]

If you check the XML that Web ADI generates to upload a document you will note that each row gets a row number. It would be a matter of being able to keep track of that number in your table so that when you are reporting the error back you can include that number in the message so the code in the Excel spreadsheet can assign it to the correct row.
I would suggest trying to use even some of the basic validation mechanisms provided within Web ADI, as these will automatically return the error messages for bad data to the correct row in the spreadsheet.
Web ADI will take the uploaded data, perform any validation check defined within meta-data then push the data to your Interface table. There are plenty of examples in th shipped code of product teams then using the Import phase of the upload to perform additional checks and then push the data further. But if you can utilize the existing Web ADI functionality. The data never ends up in the table in the first place to require any clean up on your part.

Help needed with Custom Web ADI Integrator for Mail Merge

Hello,
I've created a custom web adi integrator to generate letters to advise of end of probationary periods.
The problem is that at the end of the process when the letter is opened in Word 2007, it only displays one record, and does not allow me to "preview results" and cycle through the records (this part is greyed out). It appears that the letter is not merged with the data spreadsheet although it does display one record from it.
Our EBS version is 12.1.3 and we are using Office 2007.
These are the steps I have followed so far (in brief):
- Create a view to provide data (names, addresses etc).
- Set up a new custom function (similar to seeded function HR Integrator Setup).
- Add the custom function and other functions to Desktop Integration responsibility.
- Add the relevant functions to end user's responsibility menu.
- Add new category "other" to HR_ADI_DOCUMENT_TYPE lookup.
- Create Download Excel Integrator by choosing Desktop Integration -> HR Integrator Setup. Enter "PER" for application and my view for the View Name. Upload.
- Create another Excel document by choosing Desktop Integration -> HR Maintain Form Function Associations, and choose the integrator created above. Enter my custom function name in the generated spreadsheet and upload.
- Define a layout for the new integrator.
- Run the integrator under the end user responsibility and save the resulting spreadsheet, which is full of data as expected.
- Create the letter in Word, using the saved spreadsheet as the data source for the merge. At this point the merge is successful.
- Go to Desktop Integration -> Document Management and upload the Word mail merge document. Associate it with the custom document type created earlier.
- Link this document to my integrator.
- Go in as end user responsibility and run the integrator.
At this point after enabling macros it loads 2 spreadsheets (one full of data) and the Word document, but the Word document only displays one record (approx the 10th in the list - there are about 100 in total). All of the relevant merge-related menu items on the "Mailings" tab are greyed out.
Can anyone offer any pointers please?
I did wonder whether it mattered if I changed the names of documents, e.g when I download and save the resulting spreadsheet full of data which I then use to merge to in the Word Doc, is it OK to call the spreadsheet anything or should it be left as the default name?
Many thanks,
Hazel

Hi Nandhakumar.P,
thanks for your response. Please find the answers below:
- Set up a new custom function (similar to seeded function HR Integrator Setup).
System Administrator -> Application -> Function. Query back the seeded User Function Name = "HR Integrator Setup", make a note of the details, then add a custom function entitled "NTC_HR_LETTERS" with the same details.
- Add the custom function and other functions to Desktop Integration responsibility.
System Administrator -> Application -> Menu. Query back User Menu Name = "Desktop Integration Menu" and add the following functions:
WITHOUT PROMPT
a. HR Integrator Setup
b. HR Maintain Integrator Form Functions
c. HR Disable Integrator
d. HR ADI Document Overwrite Page
e. HR ADI Document Upload Page
f. The custom function created in previous step ("NTC_HR_LETTERS")
WITH PROMPT
g. HR ADI Document Management Page
- Add the relevant functions to end user's responsibility menu.
System Administrator -> Application -> Menu. Query back menu attached to custom responsibility of end user that will perform the action once set up.
Add the following:
a. The custom function "NTC_HR_LETTERS" as created previously (without prompt)
b. Desktop Integration - Create Document (With Prompt. This function will be used to generate letters)
- Add new category "other" to HR_ADI_DOCUMENT_TYPE lookup.
SA_Application Developer -> Application -> Lookups -> Common. Query back Type = HR_ADI_DOCUMENT_TYPE and add a new entry entitled "Other". This document type is later assigned to the Word document I upload and link to the integrator.
I hopoe that answers your questions.
Regards,
Hazel

Custom web adi integrator

I am developing a custom web adi integrator for uploading Bill of materials details from excel to oracle apps. I have created a custom integrator. I am able to see it while defining layout. I have defined layout,too. But after that when i am going to create a document, I am unable to see it in the select integrator drop-down list. Can anyone help me in this?
Can anyone send me a document for creating custom integrator?

You haven't included what version of Web ADI. But I'm going to guess that from your problem you are on Release 12.
Web ADI included additional security options in the later versions of 11.5.10 and Release 12. You have run into one of these. All Integrators are now required to be secured by a form function. When the Create Document Page Flow runs in Release 12. All integrators are cross-checked against the assigned form functions in the current menu assigned to the responsibility. Only the integrators that have a match are shown in the list (11.5.10 the full list was shown, the check was then performed when attempting to navigate to the next page).
BEGIN
BNE_SECURITY_UTILS_PKG.ADD_OBJECT_RULES
(Product Application Id,
'Integrator Code',
'INTEGRATOR',
'Security Code',
'FUNCTION',
'List of Form Function Code Names',
User Id
END;
COMMIT
Subsituting
Product Application Id - The Custom Application ID you are using for your dev,
Integrator Code - Integrator Code for the integrator you are securing
Security Code - for your use, just use the same value as Integrator Code
List of Form Function Code Names - 'BNE_ADI_CREATE_DOCUMENT,BNE_CREATE_DOCUMENT'
User Id - the Applications User Id you are using for development.
You will need to bounce Apache or use Bne Admin Servlet to clear the Web ADI caches before this will be uptaken.
Also - The Define Layout and Define Mapping flows don't perform the same check if you have the System Adminstrator privilleges. Which would be why you can see your custom integrator in those flows.

How do we define a Web ADI integrator and Associate it with a window?

Hi,
I'm on Oracle HRMS 12.1.3. I would want to export data into Excel from a form window (Navigation Path is: Leave Management > List Employees By Absence Type > Query).
When I try to export data, it says: APP-PER-289792: Before you can run a mail merge or data extraction from this window, your system administrator must define a Web ADI Integrator and associate with the window ...
I've tried looking around for articles on how to create Web ADI integrator s, but couldn't find one that explains how to associate the integrator with a given window. Any advise will be highly appreciated.

Hi Rajen and all,
The sample tutorial you and Aj gave me seem for older version like 11i or 12.0. Can i still apply or follow it for 12.2?
You also mentioned:
My approach when I started was more like the "baby step" method ... started with something simple with these 2 responsibilities and a simple integrator and then continued by adding new features (like LOV, PopLists, Contents, playing with layouts, using FNDLOAD, etc....). It's an interesting experience.
Do you have the docs you follow to do the above process? What 2 responsibilities are you referring to? It is "Desktop Integration" & "Desktop Integration Manager"?
I thought "Desktop Integration Manager" is the super-user and has all the "powers" needed for adi?
What powers does "Desktop Integration Manager" have, that "Desktop Integration" does not have? and vice-versa.
Thanks a lot,

Web ADI Integrator Projects - Transaction Import

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to create a mapping for Projects - Transaction Import in Web ADI ?
Currently I'm getting the following error when creating a mapping for the Projects - Transaction Import Integrator :
ERROR
Mappings are not required for this Integrator because the ability to download information has not been enabled.
Any feedback on this topic would be very helpfull.

Hi..
I got the answer....there is a field to add pre/post processing extension where we can write package.procedure which will get fired during the transaction import automatically.

SSRS Recursive Hierarchy for Bill of Material

OK, here we go. I have been absolutely unable to find an answer anywhere after extensive searching so I will ask this here.
First of all, I am trying to create an SSRS report for a Bill of Materials (product structure) with parent child recursive grouping to enable drill down to multiple levels. For the most part, I have achieved the goal of doing this with a proper CTE stored
procedure and including a parent recursive reference to the Child group. Here is my result set of the CTE and the grouping settings:
This produces a very pretty report that allows for drill down to levels with indents and levels and everything! Just one problem..... By grouping on the Component to get the recursive technology to work, the result set of my CTE which has 37 rows gets truncated
down to 32 due to multiple rows getting merged because part numbers can be the same while used on more than one part. In this case, see rows 30 and 34. The child (component) is PLA331. Because they are the same part number but used with different parents,
one of them gets eliminated and the result of my report looks like this:
PLA331 should be listed under SA-0482 but it is not due to the grouping of the part PLA331. How do I get all of the results to display even if I am grouping on the component? I have tried removing 'Hide Duplicates' and it does nothing.
BOMs are a very important part of a business so I am actually quite shocked that I am the only one having this structure issue. Perhaps everybody else doesn't have the same part listed on multiple levels of a BOM? Or a lot of people THINK they have the correct
BOM structure but are unaware of this little problem?
Thanks,
Sayslah

Hi Sayslah,
Based on your description, I create a similar report in my test environment. However, I cannot reproduce the same issue as your post.
Please refer to the steps below to check if there is something different. I create a dataset with three fields: Component, Parent, Qty.
1. Add a table in the report body.
2. In the Row Group dialog box, add Parent Group: [Component].
3. Setting Component Group with Recursive parent: Component.
4. Add Qty field in the table.
You can refer to the screenshot below:
If there are any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

PP-MM-FI integration for Non-Stock material consumption

The client is expecting a simple solution for a Std SAP process which is LIKE subcontracting....but actually not.
The requirement is to set up a process of external operations using a NonStock (NLAG) material ( which will have no physical stock updation when GR is done). This material is a part of BOM with item category N. The material will have S price control. ( Must from business requirements). PR gets created from process order --> converted to PO --> then 101 and simultaneous automatic consumption gets debited to order. (with a price = PO price). PO has a account assignment F and item category blank Standard).
Question - This behaviour is not desired. The "Std cost" should be used in posting a consumption posting..& the rest ( PO price less Std price) should be shown as purchase price variance in a different acount. How to customise this break up ? Is there way in MM pricing conditions or something else ?.
Pl note that there is no stock entry...only consumption will be debited with GR offset at PO price. Also at invoice verification, the price if different should be posted to price difference account ( which is not assigned to process order...it is directly going to COPA).
Might be a very simple SAP solutions / answers from MM /PP......so that we avoid the ABAP development for reposting..
Could somebody help pls ?
Regards
Ram

Hi,
Since Material is Non-Stock Material so it is must to maintain the Account Assignment Category in PR or PO for this Material. And once you maintain the Account Assignment Category in PO and do GR w.r.t. this PO then it will not consider the Material Master Price (Standard Price) since there is not any Stock Account Entry during GR, it will hit the Expense Account. And Price Difference Account will get debited only if Stock Account will come in picture.
So following Accounting Entry will get generated;
During GR (MIGO);
Expense Account - Dr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr
During LIV (MIRO);
Vendor Account - Cr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Dr

Custom Macro into standard Web ADI Integrator

Hi All,
I have done the below customization for "Journal Upload" integrator.
I have added a new option "Attachments" to the Oracle Tab using the below custom macro code.
And it is opening a custom OA Framework page(It will ask for a login) and I can add attachments.
I would like to know is there any way I can add this into the original template so that a new user login and download the template, he will get the template with the custom macro code.
<><> Code Added <><>

Dim objMenu_231_ATTACHMENTS As Object

With regards,

Yes, even I have done few customization in the JE template. The macro which I created works after downloading template.
What I want to do is to customize the code with in oracle application or with in JE template, so that whenever anyone downloading journal from apps, the customize template as per my requirement will show up. I do not have to save it and tun my macro on top it. This way 2 steps can be reduced in to 1 and this will be more reliable and user friendly.
Please let us know if this is possible.

Load testing of Web ADI in EBS R12

Hi,
I am currently testing Oracle E-Business Suite R12. Has anyone load tested the Web ADI integrator for Oracle EBS R12? What tool did you use?
Did you use QTP or Oracle ATS functional testing? I was not able to do a POC using LoadRunner or OATS load test tool.
Basically Web ADI is an integration that allows data to be uploaded/downloaded between Oracle EBS R12 and local excel.
Any help is appreciated.

I have found that OATS does not work easily with Web ADI in my case.

Web ADI Report set, excel is not showing the data for any of the three repo

We are currently working on 11.5.10.2 and moving from Desktop ADI to Web ADI. At the time of publishing report in Web ADI the excel is empty.
AFter successfully running the WEB Adi reportset for Consolidate Balncesheet ( for a period ex: APR-2012), there were 3 reports that were publlished as a set. Then I went to Repository Management and went to the folder and subfolder where I saved all the above 3 reports. When I click on view on one of the reports, the excel spreadsheet opens and try to load something for a while but finally ends up loading nothing.
I am unable to figure out what went wrong. Do you have any idea.
If someone can help me, I really appreciate.
Thanks

Hi ,
In u r query what I observed was unit cost*gross profit is Amount Sold. Can u make this calculation with Physical calculation rather than and logical calculation.
See if u have kept logical joins for both the tables with the fact and set the content level at detail level in the content level of fact.
Then it will work

Hi,
I am creating the layout for a sales order which will be send to a customer.
In that order the customer can see the payment conditions.
It should look like this:
net price: 1000,00 EUR
19,00% taxes: 190,00 EUR
gross price: 1190,00 EUR
payment conditions:
payable within 30 days net: 1190,00 EUR
payable within 14 days with discount of 2 %: 1166,20 EUR
to get the bold marked digits I need to have access on the following tables:
OCTG and CDC1
In the OCTG table I get the days (in this example 30)
In the CDC1 table I get the days of cash discount and the percentage (in this example 14 and 2)
but in the sales order layout in PLD only the OCTG table is shown when I create a database field and the CDC1 table isn't.
So what can I do to get this?

Hi,
maybe this is the problem. The type is byte and not binary.
But I have the same problem as mentioned in the other thread: I can't change the type.
The type in the WSDL of my web service is "base64binary". Is there maybe a possibility to import a jar-file for this type?
